All last week we were able to open up our home at night and let the cool 60 degree air inside. NOT yesterday morning, however. The remnants of hurricane Alvin came into the valley and it was 78 degrees at 6 a.m. and HUMID! Ugh. So, I hibernated all day and finished another journal.
Today, however, it is back to 68 degrees out on the front porch and so all our windows are open. 68 degrees on July 1st! Incredible. Northern California is supposed to have a hotter-than-normal summer, while Southern California is expected to have a less hot summer (THANK GOODNESS). Our last 2 summers have been absolutely HORRIBLE! We need a break. Hey, as long as I can open the windows for an hour or two in the mornings, listen to the birds, and feel the somewhat cool air, I'm happy!
